Erica Weiner
Erica is a self-taught entrepreneur and jewelry designer who has taken her shop from its humble beginnings in her apartment to today’s storefront on Elizabeth Street in Lower Manhattan—if you’re in the NYC area, stop in to peruse the EWJ collection and some of their great antique pieces. Erica shared candidly about her creative path and the various jobs she worked along the way before turning her jewelry-making hobby into a career. She also revealed why it’s important for her to love what she does, lessons learned from her mentors, what it’s like to run a business, and how she uses the little bit of power she has to make things right. Thank you, Erica, for sharing your story with us! —Tina
